    • The Effect of Thermal History on the Structural and Dielectric Properties of Tetragonal Tungsten Bronzes 

      Aamlid, Solveig Stubmo (Master thesis, 2016)
      Tetragonal tungsten bronzes (TTB) are remarkable materials for their potential for chemical substitution and disorder. The niobates of this kind are usually ferroelectric, and they can comprise both ordered and disordered ...

    • Ferroelectric Transitions in SrxBa(1-x)Nb2O6 - Effect of Thermal History on the Functional Properties 

      Brandvik, Trond (Master thesis, 2015)
      Many functional materials used in todays electronic equipment have a high content lead. Due to the environmental challenges related to production and usage of such materials, extensive research has been preformed on lead-free ...

    • Ferroelectric Tungsten Bronzes 

      Olsen, Gerhard Henning (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:237, Doctoral thesis, 2016)
      Ferroelectric materials are everywhere in the modern society, from consumer electronics to car engines. Applications cover a whole range of devices such as sensors, actuators and transducers due to their dielectric or ...

    • Hydrophobic Coatings for Corrosion Inhibition in Closed Heating Systems 

      Jensen, Betina Nordby; Pettersen, Christina Glenna (Bachelor thesis, 2023)
      Evnen filmdannede aminer har til å beskytte karbonstål, kobber og aluminium fra korrosjon ble undersøkt gjennom å måle kontaktvinkler, hvor målet var å sjekke hydrofobisiteten. De tre filmdannende aminene som ble brukt var ...

    • Interstitial oxygen as a source of p-type conductivity in hexagonal manganites 

      Skjærvø, Sandra Helen; Tjønneland Wefring, Espen; Nesdal, Silje K.; Gaukås, Nikolai Helth; Olsen, Gerhard Henning; Glaum, Julia; Tybell, Per Thomas Martin; Selbach, Sverre Magnus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Hexagonal manganites, h-RMnO3 (R=Sc, Y, Ho–Lu), have been intensively studied for their multiferroic properties, magnetoelectric coupling, topological defects and electrically conducting domain walls. Although point defects ...

    • Liquid Oxygen Compatibility of Materials for High-Performance Rocket Propellant Pumps 

      Kruse, Max; Couto, Sara Patricia Pereira (Bachelor thesis, 2021)
      Det ble undersøkt om det er gjennomførbart å utvikle en elektrisk pumpe for flytende oksygen i små bæreraketter, uten tetning mellom impeller og motor. Flytende oksygen er et kraftig oksidasjonsmiddel, som kan føre til ...

    • Monitoring of Emulsion Stability in a Stirred Tank Cell System 

      Vaadal, Marcus Oppebøen; Sæther, Snorre Kværnø (Bachelor thesis, 2022)
      Målet med dette arbeidet er utprøving av et røretank system som inneholder et video mikroskop benyttet i måling dråpe størrelse distribusjon, og videreutvikling av et flotør system for måling av tettpaknings lag høyde. I ...

    • On the energetics of cation ordering in tungsten-bronze-type oxides 

      Olsen, Gerhard Henning; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Grande, Tor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Oxides with the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure are well-known ferroelectrics that show a large flexibility both with respect to chemical composition and cation ordering. Two of the simplest compounds in this ...

    • Origin of ferroelectric polarization in tetragonal tungsten-bronze-type oxides 

      Olsen, Gerhard Henning; Aschauer, Ulrich; Spaldin, Nicola A.; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Grande, Tor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The origin of ferroelectric polarization in tetragonal tungsten-bronze- (TTB-) type oxide strontium barium niobate (SBN) is investigated using first-principles density functional calculations. We study in particular the ...
